Thank you for this question! Relationships are so very nuanced so this is difficult to answer as a generality, I think it would depend on the specific situation. With that said, I think it's fair to give without expectation, but then to check in with myself to see how the relationship is affecting me. If I'm starting to feel drained or that my energy is not being reciprocated, I allow myself to change the dynamic in order to respect my boundaries and take my power back. I cannot help others if I'm not first taking care of myself.
